LINK PARTNER TESTING FOR 10BASE-T & 100BASE-TX DEVICES
Note: Link Partner testing is for informational purposes only. The required compliant test patterns are not available in Link Partner Mode.
The second RJ45 connector (J27) in the 10BT w & w/o TPM section is used for link partner testing for both
10Base-T and 100Base-TX Devices. Remove jumper J98 to use the link partner’s termination of pair A.

To perform tests using a link partner, the user must have control over the device used as a link partner. The link
partner device must be set to operate in Half Duplex Mode (either 10Mbps or 100Mbps). Use the following steps
to set the Ethernet Card on a Windows-Based PC to 10Mbps Half Duplex Mode:
1. Select Start Control Panel. Double-click on System. Click the Hardware tab on the System
Properties screen. Click the Device Manager button and find Network Adapters.
2. Expand the Network Adapters and double-click yours from the ones shown.
3. On the Properties screen for the adapter, click the Advanced tab, select Link Speed & Duplex from the
Property field, and 10Mbps/Half Duplex from the Value drop-down.
4. Click the OK button.
